| - Absolutely mesmerizing! We were blessed with second row seats courtesy of MyVegas (woohoo!) and MLife, which allowed us to see every single facial expression and every detail up close. It was so wonderful to see the concentration during tough acts, followed by the thrill of sticking a landing, and relief after near-falls.
The theme is deranged circus comes back to life (plus some kind of underwater world?) and the show is full of classic circus acts like trapeze artists, aerialists, gymnasts, clowns, tightrope walkers, and a juggler. Every act was completely enthralling. I feel bad that some acts don't get as much applause as others, because everyone is holding their breath during these heartracing stunts.
Our close seats did detract from our ability to enjoy the sand artist, and did require us to crane our necks for the aerialists. That is the least of my complaints.
Zarkana is probably my second favorite Las Vegas cirque show (O being my favorite), and I highly recommend trying to grab a deal on tickets (super cheap right now!) before the show closes.
